Omg that’s so goddamn sad

hooooooly shit that's an incredible thing to put down in writing as justification like whaaaaaaa 🤯

Oh man popehat’s not even doing commentary anymore, just straight screenshots, it’s anarchy out here

In less than a week the Kennedy Center has effectively closed and our local DC paper has been gutted, both by billionaires. I don’t think immigrants are our problem in this country.

Trump's constant degradation of female reporters is unsurprising but the press corps' collective decision to treat it as background noise is actually kind of sickening

So, remember that Episcopal bishop in New Hampshire that told priests to get their wills in order because “we are entering a new era of martyrdom"? I ran across historical precedent for that today. It's from a radio transcript @rns.org produced about a Lutheran bishop in Denmark… …in 1943.

I don’t wanna write it all out but trust me I’m experiencing the “ahaha takes breath ahaha” poast right now.

i know that this is an unpopular take, but everyone starting their own newsletter as a revenue stream is not a sustainable model for writing and reporting or for people who love and want to pay for media.

The next topic in our sports issue is gambling, the 2nd-highest service-sector industry for GDP growth between 2019 and 2024(!). It has taken over games, leagues, state treasuries, and of course the mostly male bettors, who trend young. Really young. Middle school young. prospect.org/2026/02/04/f...

I’m reminded of my visit to Dachau, where one of the core lessons is “Of course people knew it was here, it’s just outside Munich, it wasn’t hidden.”

“The masses of the people, however, did not realize how much the industrial tycoons, the Army and the State were benefiting from the ruin of the currency.” — William L. Shirer, “The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany”

Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

Lotta “holy shit” reactions in the TL right now, Melinda Gates, AUSA, what’s next. Btw, this is indeed what it is to win the Insanity War we’re currently in.

Every time this comes up I wonder if we're ever going to shift the conversation to why women are avoiding them.

man, this ad seems to feature a bunch of people who all have something in common but it's hard for me to put my finger on it...

I think we should all strive to be remarkable but in a way that matters to ourselves, not how it’s defined by others. And it needs to be about how we ARE not what we do.

Look, here's a winning campaign message: We're gonna repossess every dime the Trump family has stolen over the past 10+ years and use it to rebuild everything they're tearing down; each building will have a small plaque noting what happens when you try to become king of the United States.

Some people want to be right more than they want to win.

Billionaires 👏 are 👏 a 👏 policy 👏 failure.

oh that's some bad chatgpt lawyering right there in their statement.

we. need. different. business. models. Because they're going to keep doing it, it's part of the infinity revenue spiral. Only way out is, well, out.

We’ve got another @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com banger on our hands folks

ICE is gonna try to detain Bad Bunny after the Super Bowl halftime show and it's gonna be the final straw

Ok, Slopadopolus is funny.

Sheep-like behavior in SV that gets glossed over in the myths? Naaaaaaaaah

ngl, I respect the ability to limit replies to posts, everyone should be the boss of their interactions. BUT! If you limit reactions to your garbage response to viral postbait (with a bad food take, for example), you’re just disrespecting The Game.

Our sun is one of 100 billion stars in our galaxy. Our galaxy is one of billions of galaxies populating the universe. It would be the height of presumption to think that we are the only living things in that enormous immensity. —Wernher von Braun, remarks delivered to a publishers group, as

Has anybody started a “Not in the Epstein files” list of companies we can keep using?

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time
